Mathematics
Maths in Key Stage 3 lays the groundwork for GCSE. Students consolidate arithmetic, develop algebraic fluency, and build confidence with ratio, geometry, probability and statistics — the six strands that run straight into GCSE.
- Number & Arithmetic
Number fluency frees up thinking. This topic secures arithmetic with integers, fractions, decimals, percentages and powers.
- Algebra
Algebra is the language of maths. This topic develops expressions, equations, sequences and straight-line graphs.
- Ratio, Proportion & Rates of Change
Proportional reasoning appears everywhere. This topic covers ratio, direct and inverse proportion, and rates of change.
- Geometry & Measure
Geometry builds reasoning and proof. This topic covers angles, properties of shapes, area and volume, and transformations.
- Probability
Probability quantifies chance. This topic covers the probability scale, experimental and theoretical probability, and combined events.
- Statistics
Data informs decisions. This topic covers collecting, representing and interpreting data, and calculating averages and spread.
Learning with Mathematics
Choose an area below to explore its topics and the resources currently available in your view.
- Choose your focus
Start with a topic you are teaching, practising or revisiting. Follow the stage and subject links to change direction.
- Check the resource details
Look at the activity instructions, format and available learning tools. Protected activities check your current account access.
- Use the evidence thoughtfully
A download, submitted attempt and completion are different records. Review the available feedback before choosing what to do next.
A little help getting started
How should I choose a resource?
Use the topic and stage as a starting point, then read the individual resource instructions. Parents and pupils can ask a teacher for help choosing work that fits their current learning.
Why might a resource be unavailable?
The listings follow current resource visibility and account settings. Some activities require sign-in, a membership or another permission. Browse another topic or return to the learning library to explore.
What do the learning records tell me?
The tools and trackers depend on the resource. Opening a document is separate from submitting practice or recording completion, and none alone establishes mastery.
